I’m not sure if it was a fever dream or what but I swear I saw this trailer like three months ago in front of Gladiator 2. It’s rad that they are getting sneaky about trailers again. The trailer for Dave Franco’s TOGETHER also played in a theater recently but can’t be found online. Same with Oz Perkins new flick KEEPER.
But now that I have seen it twice I can go ahead and claim that I think this new John Wick spinoff BALLERINA both has a stupid name and looks like it might rock the shit.
When announced, 99% of us rolled our eyes. Of course, Hollywood comes up with one original idea in John Wick and now they are going to squeeze the life out of it. I have nipples, Greg? Can you milk me? That being said, Ana de Armas has kind of a Keanu type coolness to her. Nobody has Keanu’s level of coolness but little moments where she opens some weaponry and literally says “cool” has me enjoying her Keanu-esque lack of conversational abilities.
The aura of John Wick is there, the neon lights, cool conversation, Lance fucking Reddick post humously, and even Ian McShane. Oh, and fuckin Keanu is in here too! The action looks pretty damn top notch and I don’t mind me a good lady Hitman flick. So, if you are asking me if I am going to watch Ballerina? Yeah, I’m thinking I’m going to watch Ballerina. Here’s the new trailer. Let me know what you think. Oh, and here’s me reviewing John Wick 4.
